VR...or...
I used a Sears cross-tip (Phillips) offset ratcheting driver to get into the tight spot for that one screw (see other threads with pix). About $8 but handy. Comes in a flat tip version as well.
When you get the old VR out, check the length of the brushes. If still about 1/2" long or longer, it could be something else.
Assume before you did anything you checked the belt for adequate, not excessive play. Also check to see if the V sides of the belt are super shiny or silverly looking. Could indicate slippage.
Check sheave to shaft, as above.
Good luck.
